I am not at all convinced your hangs are related to zram or swap.
I'm pretty sure you're right
Fire up top in a terminal with 1 second refresh and watch the memory usage. If the free memory suddenly drops through the floor, then maybe memory pressure is relevant (but the root cause is still a bug in the application).
Problem happens too rarely for that to be practical, perhaps I can get this info logged?
Otherwise, I'd probably look at a big in the audio subsystem somewhere.
That's my worry, changing my cmdline player won't help if the new one uses the same codec library and that's the problem

Just out of interest, you haven't tweaked the default cache size setting on mplayer, have you?

Er, yes, on the cmdline, e.g....

mplayer -cache 1024 -cache-min 5  "http://listen.radionomy.com/dubsideradio";

can't see that breaking it tho'
